The imperial city was bustling with activity as the new emperor was enthroned. However, the Duke of Wei's residence in the capital was very quiet at this time. Xu Huizu had recovered from his illness, and his illness had not recurred since he returned to the capital from the defeat in Taiping Prefecture.
Xu Huizu's current treatment is the same as Qiu Fu's back then; inside and outside the mansion are all people sent by the new emperor!
Because he was the enemy commander in the Zhili Campaign, some soldiers of the Punishment Army wanted to arrest him after entering Beijing. Unexpectedly, Xu Huizu took out the Xu family's iron plate of immunity from death and publicly called him the descendant of a great founding hero; the generals who came to Duke Wei did not want to stand out either, so they asked someone to guard his mansion and let the matter go.
There were many people like Xu Huizu who did not support the new emperor. For example, Xia Yuanji, the Ministe
"Wang's death was not caused by Lao Na and others."Daoyan finally spoke. This was the first sentence Yao Fang had heard him speak recently. Before this, he had been silent. He was not afraid of death. He was simply unmoved. It seemed that nothing could make him care.Yao Fang even thought that Daoyan was getting confused, but after hearing these words, Yao Fang knew that Daoyan was not confused at all, but knew everything.Yao Fang first found the Dao Yu Lu on the bookshelf, but Dao Yan didn't say anything. Then Yao Fang fumbled for a loose brick under the bed and took out a box underneath. Only then did Dao Yan finally say anything.But Daoyan was still restrained, pretending not to care. Perhaps Daoyan knew in his heart that the more nervous he was about the books, the more likely they would be destroyed! After all, Yao Fang came with a revengeful mentality.Why did Yao Fang think he was pretending? Because Daoyan's eyes would occasionally gla
On the first night after ascending the throne, Zhu Gaoxu lived in Qianqing Palace. This is where the Ming Emperor lived.Sure enough, I didn’t sleep well, and I felt uneasy all night! Maybe it's because I'm not used to it yet. His mood was very complicated, ranging from novelty and excitement to uneasy insecurity.After all, it is a place where only emperors can sleep. Just this big picture can make Zhu Gaoxu excited; there are tens of thousands of women in the harem for him to choose from. Although he can't take care of it, it is still very satisfying to think about having so many.However, the sleeping comfort of Qianqing Palace is indeed a bit poor. When building, you should only consider the emperor's specifications and your exclusive status, and it cannot give people a relaxing feeling at all.The Prince's Palace in the Han Dynasty is also very large, but it is far inferior to this place. Moreover, the surrounding area of Qianqing Palace is bare,
The new emperor had just ascended the throne, and Fengyang, the central capital, had not yet received the imperial edict. However, the news that the crusade army had entered the capital had already reached here.Of course, there are many people here who cannot hear the news. It is difficult for those who are imprisoned in Fengyang to guard the tombs of the ancestors and fathers of the Ming Dynasty. It is difficult for them to know what is going on outside. Ma Enhui is no exception.Ma Enhui was eating when there was movement and voices in the yard.Her heart suddenly lifted! Usually no one comes here, and even when people come, they don't speak, just like a mute; what's more, the person who delivered lunch at noon has already arrived.Who is this person? Are they here to kill me? Want to eliminate the root cause or vent your anger?Ma Enhui was very scared. She suddenly understood that she was afraid of death! And there was a feeling of sadness i
Zhu Gaoxu has read a lot of troublesome state affairs in the past few days, and they seem to be very important; such as the civil and military memorials in border towns to report to Zhu Gaochi (who had become the puppet emperor at this time), the Mongolian tribes harassing the border and other memorials. Everything seemed urgent.But Xue Yan quietly said: It won't be a big deal if it lasts for ten days and a half. The remnants of the Yuan Dynasty cannot threaten the Ming Dynasty now; even if our army urgently mobilizes the army to go north, the tribesmen in the north will have already fled when they arrive, so it will not be of much use!Zhu Gaoxu also felt that this matter could not be handled so simply and that it had to be considered in the long term...The emperor always sleeps alone in the Qianqing Palace, the rain and dew cannot benefit the Sixth Palace, and the emperor's heirs cannot prosper; that is the eunuch's dereliction of duty, and sooner or lat
In the spacious and luxurious Qianqing Palace, purple and red curtains embroidered with gold threads hang straight to the wooden floor.The light from the palace lantern on Cheng Liang's copper lamp stand passes through the two layers of curtains and shines inside, showing different hazy colors. The purple, red, and red light all give people a warm and gorgeous feeling. The two events of half an hour passed, there was no more sound, and the palace was completely quiet.Zhu Gaoxu lay on his back on the pillow, slowly holding the skin on Pu's shoulder with his hands. Pu Shi leaned sideways in his arms, her body heaving and breathing heavily. Her face was a little pale and her eyes were closed.Looking at the top of Lingluo's tent, Zhu Gaoxu seemed to see the invisible surging tide receding rapidly. After being silent for a while, he gradually started to feel a little strange.After a while, Ms. Pu struggled feebly to get up. She asked feebly , "Is Your M
In the past few days, Zhu Gaoxu was on duty at Yumen. After lunch today, he went to the East Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace.Entering Dongnuan Pavilion, you have to pass through a famous sloping corridor.It is located inside the Qianqing Gate and belongs to the living area of the harem of the Emperor of Heaven. Normal civil and military personnel from the outer court are absolutely not allowed to enter. Anyone who is a scholar and has been to the Xianlang must have been a close official of the Emperor in an important position. , such a person can not only meet the emperor, but also talk to the emperor in such informal settings. Therefore, when a literati talks about the sloping corridor in front of friends, it brings with it a halo.Zhu Gaoxu also knew that the Slanted Corridor was very famous, but when he walked here, he saw only an ordinary corridor. It was just like when he visited Leifeng Pagoda in later generations, he really saw it and felt that it
Before leaving his post at the hour of You, Zhu Gaoxu summoned another person: Hu Yi, the Minister of Rites.Hu Yi entered from the oblique corridor to meet the emperor, kowtowed and wished him a long life. Zhu Gaoxu raised his head while writing and said, "Get up."After Zhu Gaoxu finished writing, he took a look at the handwriting and thought: This handwriting is really good, I have to brag about it. He put down the brush neatly and handed the paper with wet handwriting to Cao Fu next to him."Minister Hu, take this imperial edict and go to the Ministry of Personnel to find Jian Yi and ask him to handle the appointment letter and other formalities for you. From now on, you will be the Left Minister of Rites and be in charge of the Ministry of Rites." Zhu Gaoxu did not forget to remind him carefully, "The ink is not dry yet, don't smudge it."Hu Yi was stunned for a moment, and stood there for a while without reacting. When Cao Fu delivered the imperi
A student of the Imperial College wrote an article praising Qi Tai and read it in public, which quickly caused a shock among the scholars in the capital. Some people even secretly speculated: This is a sign of someone forming a clique and risking their lives to overturn Jianwen's verdict?But that day, the author of the article was found out.There were many foreign students in the Imperial College at that time, and most of them were from North Korea. They were gold-plated in the Imperial College so that they could go back to serve as officials. The author of this article was a Korean, and he also had a more important identity: he was worshiped by the Ministry of Rites. Hu Hui is my teacher!In the past two days, Hu Hui had just been promoted from Minister of Rites to Zuo Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, and was favored by the Holy Spirit!The current emperor is the legitimate son of Emperor Taizong, and his enthronement edict also praised Taizong's
